Hello Sascha, There is a topic on our forum that discusses ways to reduce the memory footprint without affecting the Oxygen performance: http://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/topic6275.html You could try the same settings described there: -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=40 -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=20 These arguments make the JVM more dynamic with regard to freeing unused heap back to the OS. If you are launching Oxygen with the 'oxygen' script or the Desktop shortcuts, add these arguments to the 'oxygen.vmoptions' file from the Oxygen installation directory. If you are using the 'oxygen.sh' startup script, you should add these arguments to the command at the end of the script. As George explained, reducing the amount of memory available to Oxygen may actually decrease performance. I can only recommend this if you are only editing small files in Oxygen. If you want to do this anyway, you can adjust the -Xmx argument to a lower value(e.g. -Xmx512m) in the files described above: 'oxygen.vmoptions'/'oxygen.sh'. Let us know if you need additional assistance. Regards, Adrian Adrian Buza <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger George Cristian Bina wrote:

Dear Sascha,

You can control the maximum memory through the -Xmx parameter. How to set this parameter depends on the operating system and on how you start oXygen. These options are described in the user guide http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/index.html?q=/doc/ug-editor/topics/se...

Now, it is the processor that makes a program faster - of course the memory can also slightly change that as well - for example if the used memory is very close to the maximum memory then you may experience slow downs due to many invocations on the garbage collector, in this case increasing the maximum memory may speed up the application. You can check how much memory is used in the Help -> About dialog.

Hello Mates,

i'm very happy to use Oxygen XML Editor. But i have a little Problem. The JAVA Process eats many Memory. Is it possible to use an Parameter with "java -jar XXX" to make this a little bit faster?

Have a nice day Sascha
